The Community Based Water Supply projects have a large number of female participants, said Water Supply and Drainage Board Minister Dinesh Gunawardana speaking at the launching of the website www.cwtintelligentlife.lk functioning in both Sinhala and English, at the ministry premises recently. The site will function in Tamil soon.

Around 3,500 community based water supply projects have been implemented throughout the country where over 3.4 million people are provided water.

The number of beneficiaries of these projects are higher than the number of consumers who are provided water from the National Water Supply and Drainage Board, said the minister.

This website was designed by the Intelligent Life Software institute free of charge. It provides many services to water consumers throughout the country. Upon a request by the minister, the institute will establish another facility to provide this service through mobile phones. According to the minister, this website enables visitors to convey their problems to the authority and to let them know whether their problems have been solved.
